Abstract
Primary stability, the mechanical fixation between implant and bone prior to osseointegration, is crucial for the long-term success of cementless tibial trays. However, little is known about the mechanical interplay between the implant and bone internally, as experimental studies quantifying internal strain are limited. This study employed digital volume correlation (DVC) to quantify the immediate post-implantation strain field of five cadaveric tibiae implanted with a commercially available cementless titanium tibial tray (Attune, DePuy Synthes). The tibiae were subjected to a five-step loading sequence (0-2.5 bodyweight, BW) replicating stair descent, with concomitant time-elapsed micro-CT imaging. With progressive loads, increased compression of trabecular bone was quantified, with the highest strains directly under the posterior region of the tibial tray implant, dissipating with increasing distance from the bone-implant interface. After load removal of the last load step (2.5BW), residual strains were observed in all of the five tibiae, with residual strains confined within 3.14 mm from the bone-implant interface. The residual strain is reflective of the observed initial migration of cementless tibial trays reported in clinical studies. The presence of strains above the yield strain of bone accepted in literature suggests that inelastic properties should be included within finite element models of the initial mechanical environment. This study provides a means to experimentally quantify the internal strain distribution of human tibia with cementless trays, increasing the understanding of the mechanical interaction between bone and implant.

Abstract
A non-invasive method of quantitatively assessing dental implant stability is important to monitor its long-term health. The Advanced System for Implant Stability Testing (ASIST) is a noninvasive technique that couples the impact technique with a linear vibration model of the implant system, such that the measured signal can be used to determine a matching analytical response. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ASIST technique by comparing stability estimates obtained from artificial implant installations with various abutments. Two Straumann dental implants were installed in four densities of uniform polyurethane foam, and the stability of each installation was measured using different healing abutments and artificial dental crowns. With the ASIST, values for the estimated interfacial stiffness increased with foam density and did not significantly change with abutment type for a specific sample. This provides evidence that the analytical model is representative of the physical system. Current methods, such as resonance frequency analysis, interpret the interface stiffness based on a single frequency measurement. With the ASIST, the measured signal provides information about the first and second modes of vibration of the implant system, both of which are influenced by the properties of the corresponding abutment. The consideration of both modes allows the technique to reliably measure the interfacial stiffness independently of the system components. As a result, the ASIST technique may provide an improved non-invasive method of measuring the stability of dental implants.

Abstract
Long-term dental implant success is dependent on biocompatibility and osseointegration between the bone and the implant. Surface modifications such as laser-induced microgrooving which increase contact area can enhance osseointegration by establishing and directing a stable attachment between the implant surface and peri-implant bone. The objective of this study was to evaluate pre-osteoblast proliferation, morphology, and differentiation on titanium alloy (Ti64) surfaces-Laser-Lok© (LL), resorbable blast textured (RBT), and machined (M)-compared to tissue culture plastic (TCP) control. We hypothesized the LL surfaces would facilitate increased cellular alignment compared to all other groups, and LL and RBT surfaces would demonstrate enhanced proliferation and differentiation compared to M and TCP surfaces. Surface roughness was quantified using a surface profilometer, and water contact angle was measured to evaluate the hydrophilicity of the surfaces. Cellular function was assessed using quantitative viability and differentiation assays and image analyses, along with qualitative fluorescent (viability and cytoskeletal) imaging and scanning electron microscopy. No differences in surface roughness were observed between groups. Water contact angle indicated LL was the least hydrophilic surface, with RBT and M surfaces exhibiting greater hydrophilicity. Cell proliferation on day 2 was enhanced on both LL and RBT surfaces compared to M, and all three groups had higher cell numbers on day 2 compared to day 1. Cell orientation was driven by the geometry of the surface modification, as cells were more highly aligned on LL surfaces compared to TCP (on day 2) and RBT (on day 3). At day 21, cell proliferation was greater on LL, RBT, and TCP surfaces compared to M, though no differences in osteogenic differentiation were observed. Collectively, our results highlight the efficacy of laser microgrooved and resorbable blast textured surface modifications of Ti64 for enhancing cellular functions, which may facilitate improved osseointegration of dental implants.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To discuss the state of the art of Finite Element (FE) modeling in implant dentistry, to highlight the principal features and the current limitations, and giving recommendations to pave the way for future studies. METHODS The articles' search was performed through PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct, and Google Scholar using specific keywords. The articles were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, after title, abstract and full-text evaluation. A total of 147 studies were included in this review. RESULTS To date, the FE analysis of the bone-dental implant system has been investigated by analyzing several types of implants; modeling only a portion of bone considered as isotropic material, despite its anisotropic behavior; assuming in most cases complete osseointegration; considering compressive or oblique forces acting on the implant; neglecting muscle forces and the bone remodeling process. Finally, there is no standardized approach for FE modeling in the dentistry field. SIGNIFICANCE FE modeling is an effective computational tool to investigate the long-term stability of implants. The ultimate aim is to transfer such technology into clinical practice to help dentists in the diagnostic and therapeutic phases. To do this, future research should deeply investigate the loading influence on the bone-implant complex at a microscale level. This is a key factor still not adequately studied. Thus, a multiscale model could be useful, allowing to account for this information through multiple length scales. It could help to obtain information about the relationship among implant design, distribution of bone stress, and bone growth. Finally, the adoption of a standardized approach will be necessary, in order to make FE modeling highly predictive of the implant's long-term stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical treatment of patients with osteoarthritis of the hip and persisting symptoms under conservative therapy has become increasingly important against the background of an aging population. OBJECTIVES What are the physiological reactions in the interface between cementless implants and bone? METHODS The literature is reviewed, expert opinions and animal models are analyzed and discussed. RESULTS Surface coating of implants with hydroxyapatite or titanium can have positive effects on osteointegration. Additional local application of mediators might be beneficial for osteointegration in the future. CONCLUSION Early peri-implant bone healing directly after implantation and late remodeling of the bone-implant interface are essential for secondary implant stability.

Abstract
The success of hip arthroplasty is based on modern materials in addition to the continuous development of surgical techniques and clinical experience gained over six decades. The biocompatible implant materials used in hip arthroplasty can be textured or coated with biomimetic surfaces to ensure durable component ingrowth and moderate host response. Material integrity plays a critical role in the durability of the stable interface between implant components and periprosthetic tissues. Inflammation at the interfaces due to the release of degradation products from the implant materials is one of the causes of hip arthroplasty failure. This review summarizes the implant materials currently used in hip arthroplasty, their preclinical testing and the postoperative neogenesis of periprosthetic tissues, and the interactions of periprosthetic bone and the implant materials at the periprosthetic interfaces.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The bone-implant gap resulted from morphological mismatch between cervical bony endplates and implant footprint may have adverse impact on bone-implant interfacial osseointegration of cervical disc arthroplasty (CDA). The purpose of the study was to evaluate the impact of bone-implant gap size on the interfacial osseointegration in a rabbit animal model. METHODS A series of round-plate implants with different teeth depth (0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm and 2.0 mm) was specifically designed. A total of 48 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly categorized into four groups by the implants they received (0.5 mm: group A, 1.0 mm: group B, 1.5 mm: group C, 2.0 mm: group D). At 4th and 12th week after surgery, animals were sacrificed. Micro-CT, acid fuchsin and methylene blue staining and hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining were conducted. RESULTS At 4th week and 12th week after surgery, both micro-CT and HE staining showed more new bone formation and larger bone coverage in group A and group B than that in group C and group D. At 12th week, the bone biometric parameters were significantly superior in group C when compared with group D (p < 0.05). At 12th week, hard tissue slicing demonstrated larger portion of direct contact of new bone to the HA coating in group A and group B. CONCLUSIONS Bone-implant gap size larger than 1.0 mm negatively affected bone-implant osseointegration between compact bone and HA coated implant surface.

Abstract
Cementless implants have become widely used for total hip replacement surgery. The long-term stability of these implants is achieved by bone growing around and into the rough surface of the implant, a process called osseointegration. However, debonding of the bone-implant interface can still occur due to aseptic implant loosening and insufficient osseointegration, which may have dramatic consequences. The aim of this work is to describe a new 3D finite element frictional contact formulation for the debonding of partially osseointegrated implants. The contact model is based on a modified Coulomb friction law by Immel et al. (2020), that takes into account the tangential debonding of the bone-implant interface. This model is extended in the direction normal to the bone-implant interface by considering a cohesive zone model, to account for adhesion phenomena in the normal direction and for adhesive friction of partially bonded interfaces. The model is applied to simulate the debonding of an acetabular cup implant. The influence of partial osseointegration and adhesive effects on the long-term stability of the implant is assessed. The influence of different patient- and implant-specific parameters such as the friction coefficient [Formula: see text], the trabecular Young's modulus [Formula: see text], and the interference fit [Formula: see text] is also analyzed, in order to determine the optimal stability for different configurations. Furthermore, this work provides guidelines for future experimental and computational studies that are necessary for further parameter calibration.

Abstract
Osseointegration is the direct and intimate contact between mineralized tissue and titanium implant at the bone-implant interface. Early establishment and stable maintenance of osseointegration is the key to long-term implant success. However, in patients with compromised conditions such as osteoporosis and patients beginning early load-bearing activities such as walking, lower osseointegration around titanium implants is often observed, which might result in implant early failure. Gene-activated implants show an exciting prospect of combining gene delivery and biomedical implants to solve the problems of poor osseointegration formation, overcoming the shortcomings of protein therapy, including rapid degradation and overdose adverse effects. The conception of gene-activated titanium implants is based on "gene-activated matrix" (GAM), which means scaffolds using non-viral vectors for in situ gene delivery to achieve a long-term and efficient transfection of target cells. Current preclinical studies in animal models have shown that plasmid DNA (pDNA), microRNA (miRNA), and small interference RNA (siRNA) functionalized titanium implants can enhance osseointegration with safety and efficiency, leading to the expectation of applying this technique in dental and orthopedic clinical scenarios. This review aims to comprehensively summarize fabrication strategies, current applications, and futural outlooks of gene-activated implants, emphasizing nucleic acid targets, non-viral vectors, implant surface modification techniques, nucleic acid/vector complexes loading strategies.

Abstract
Surface characteristics are an important factor for long-term clinical success of dental implants. Alterations of implant surface characteristics accelerate or improve osseointegration by interacting with the physiology of bone healing. Dental implant surfaces have been traditionally modified at the microlevel. Recently, researchers have actively investigated nano-modifications in dental implants. This review explores implant surface modifications that enhance biological response at the interface between a bone and the implant.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the utility of a novel metal artifact reduction algorithm to standard imaging in improving visualization of key structures, diagnostic confidence, and patient-level confidence in malignancy in patients with suspected bladder cancer. METHODS Patients with hip implants undergoing CT urography for suspected bladder malignancy were enrolled. Images were reconstructed using 3 methods: (1) Filtered Back Projection (FBP), (2) Iterative Metal Artifact Reduction (iMAR), and (3) Adaptive Iterative Metal Artifact Reduction (AiMAR) strength 4. In multiple reading sessions, three radiologists graded visualization of critical anatomic structures and artifact severity (6-point scales, lower scores desirable), and diagnostic confidence in blinded fashion. They also graded patient-level confidence in malignancy based on imaging findings in each patient. RESULTS Thirty-two patients (8 females) with a mean age of 74.5 ± 8.5 years were included. The median (range) visualization scores for FBP, iMAR, and AiMAR were 3.6 (1.1-4.9), 1.6 (0.3-2.8), and 1.6 (0.3-2.6), respectively. Both iMAR and AiMAR had anatomic visualization and artifact scores better than FBP (P < 0.001 for both) and similar to each other (P > 0.05). Structures with the most improvement in visualization score with the use of metal artifact reduction algorithms included the obturator internus muscle, internal and external iliac nodal chains, and vagina. iMAR and AiMAR improved diagnostic confidence (P < 0.001) and patient-level confidence in malignancy (P ≤ 0.24). CONCLUSION For patients with hip prostheses and suspected bladder malignancy, the use of iMAR or AiMAR was shown to significantly reduce metal artifacts, thus improving diagnostic confidence and patient-level confidence in malignancy.

Abstract
Introduction Malalignment of the Total Ankle Replacement (TAR) has often been postulated as the main reason for the high incidence of TAR failure. As the ankle joint has a small contact area, stresses are typically high, and malalignment may lead to non-homogeneous stress distributions, including stress peaks that may initiate failure. This study aims to elucidate the effect of TAR malalignment on the contact stresses on the bone-implant interface, thereby gaining more understanding of the potential role of malalignment in TAR failure. Methods Finite Element (FE) models of the neutrally aligned as well as malaligned CCI (Ceramic Coated Implant) Evolution TAR implant (Van Straten Medical) were developed. The CCI components were virtually inserted in a generic three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the tibia and talus. The tibial and talar TAR components were placed in neutral alignment and in 5° and 10° varus, valgus, anterior and posterior malalignment. Loading conditions of the terminal stance phase of the gait cycle were applied. Peak contact pressure and shear stress at the bone-implant interface were simulated and stress distributions on the bone-implant interface were visualized. Results In the neutral position, a peak contact pressure and shear stress of respectively 98.4 MPa and 31.9 MPa were found on the tibial bone-implant interface. For the talar bone-implant interface, this was respectively 68.2 MPa and 39.0 MPa. TAR malalignment increases peak contact pressure and shear stress on the bone-implant interface. The highest peak contact pressure of 177 MPa was found for the 10° valgus malaligned tibial component, and the highest shear stress of 98.5 MPa was found for the 10° posterior malaligned talar model. High contact stresses were mainly located at the edges of the bone-implant interface and the fixation pegs of the talar component. Conclusions The current study demonstrates that TAR malalignment leads to increased peak stresses. High peak stresses could contribute to bone damage and subsequently reduced implant fixation, micromotion, and loosening. Further research is needed to investigate the relationship between increased contact stresses at the bone-implant interface and TAR failure.

Abstract
Background. The surface properties of implants are effective factors for increasing the osseointegration and activity of osteoprogenitor cells. This study compared the stability of dental implants with sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA) and modified surfaces (SLActive) using the resonance frequency analysis (RFA). Methods. In a split-mouth design, 50 dental implants with either SLA surface properties (n=25) or modified (SLActive) surface properties (n=25) were placed in the mandibles of 12 patients with a bilateral posterior edentulous area. Implant stability was measured using RFA (Osstell) at implant placement time and every week for 1, 2, and 3 months before the conventional loading time. Results. One week following the implantation, implant stability increased from 70 to 77.67 for SLA and from 71.67 to 79 for SLActive (P < 0.05). Stability improved each week except in the 4th week in SLActive surface measurements. No significant differences were observed between the groups at 2 and 3 months (P > 0.05). Conclusions. For both implant surfaces, increased stability was observed over time, with no significant differences between the groups.

Abstract
Regardless of the advancement of synthetic bone substitutes, allograft-derived bone substitutes still dominate in the orthopaedic circle in the treatments of bone diseases. Nevertheless, the stringent devitalization process jeopardizes their osseointegration with host bone and therefore prone to long-term failure. Hence, improving osseointegration and transplantation efficiency remains important. The alteration of bone tissue microenvironment (TME) to facilitate osseointegration has been generally recognized. However, the concept of exerting metal ionic cue in bone TME without compromising the mechanical properties of bone allograft is challenging. To address this concern, an interfacial tissue microenvironment with magnesium cationc cue was tailored onto the gamma-irradiated allograft bone using a customized magnesium-plasma surface treatment. The formation of the Mg cationic cue enriched interfacial tissue microenvironment on allograft bone was verified by the scanning ion-selective electrode technique. The cellular activities of human TERT-immortalized mesenchymal stem cells on the Mg-enriched grafts were notably upregulated. In the animal test, superior osseointegration between Mg-enriched graft and host bone was found, whereas poor integration was observed in the gamma-irradiated controls at 28 days post-operation. Furthermore, the bony in-growth appeared on magnesium-enriched allograft bone was significant higher. The mechanism possibly correlates to the up-regulation of integrin receptors in mesenchymal stem cells under modified bone TME that directly orchestrate the initial cell attachment and osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. Lastly, our findings demonstrate the significance of magnesium cation modified bone allograft that can potentially translate to various orthopaedic procedures requiring bone augmentation. A modified interfacial Mg TME was tailored onto the GI allograft bone matrix without compromising the mechanical properties. The SIET were applied to recognize the Mg2+-cue enriched interfacial TME on the surface of the Mg-treated bone allograft. The rodent model that is analogous to the clinical use of allograft bone were applied to charaterize the osseointegration. The boundary of the Mg-enriched allograft bone was already unable to be identified and become homogeneous at D28 post-op. The Mg2+-cue enriched interfacial TME is able to convince the upregulation of several integrin receptors of MSCs.

Abstract
Upon placement of an implant into living bone, an interface is formed through which various biochemical, biological, physical, and mechanical interactions take place. This interface evolves over time as the mechanical properties of peri-implant bone increase. Owing to the multifactorial nature of interfacial processes, it is challenging to devise a comprehensive model for predicting the mechanical behavior of the bone-implant interface. We propose a simple spatio-temporally evolving mechanical model - from an elementary unit cell comprising randomly oriented mineralized collagen fibrils having randomly assigned stiffness all the way up to a macroscopic bone-implant interface in a gap healing scenario. Each unit cell has an assigned Young's modulus value between 1.62 GPa and 25.73 GPa corresponding to minimum (i.e., 0) and maximum (i.e., 0.4) limits of mineral volume fraction, respectively, in the overlap region of the mineralized collagen fibril. Gap closure and subsequent stiffening are modeled to reflect the two main directions of peri-implant bone formation, i.e., contact osteogenesis and distance osteogenesis. The linear elastic stochastic finite element model reveals highly nonlinear temporal evolution of bone-implant interface stiffness, strongly dictated by the specific kinetics of contact osteogenesis and distance osteogenesis. The bone-implant interface possesses a small stiffness until gap closure, which subsequently evolves into a much higher stiffness, and this transition is reminiscent of a percolation transition whose threshold corresponds to gap closure. The model presented here, albeit preliminary, can be incorporated into future calculations of the bone-implant system where the interface is well-defined mechanically. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A simple, physically informed model for the mechanical characteristics of the bone-implant interface is still missing. Here, we start by extending the reported mechanical characteristics of a one cubic micrometre unit cell to a 250 µm long interface made of 1 µm thick layers. The stiffness of each cell (based on mineral content) is assigned randomly to mimic bone micro-heterogeneity. The numerical study of this interface representative structure allows for the simultaneous determination of the spatio-temporal evolution of the mechanical response at local (discrete element) and global (overall model) scales. The proposed model is the first of this kind that can easily be incorporated into realistic future models of bone-implant interaction with emphasis on implant stability and different loading conditions.

Abstract
Dental implants are popular for dental rehabilitation after tooth loss. The goal of this systematic review was to assess bone changes around bone-level and tissue-level implants and the possible causes. Electronic searches of PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science, and a hand search limited to English language clinical trials were performed according to PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) guidelines up to September 2020. Studies that stated the type of implants used, and that reported bone-level changes after insertion met the inclusion criteria. The risk of bias was also evaluated. A total of 38 studies were included. Eighteen studies only used bone-level implants, 10 utilized tissue-level designs and 10 observed bone-level changes in both types of implants. Based on bias assessments, evaluating the risk of bias was not applicable in most studies. There are vast differences in methodologies, follow-ups, and multifactorial characteristics of bone loss around implants, which makes direct comparison impossible. Therefore, further well-structured studies are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Today, biological fixation of uncemented press-fit acetabular components plays an important role in total hip arthroplasty. Long-term stable fixation of these implants depends on the osseointegration of the acetabular cup bone tissue into the acetabular cup implant, and their ability to withstand functional loads.
AIM To compare the strength of bone-implant osseointegration of four types of porous metal implants in normal and osteoporotic bone in rabbits.
METHODS The study was performed in 50 female California rabbits divided into non-ovariectomized (non-OVX) and ovariectomized groups (OVX) at 6 mo of age. Rabbits were sacrificed 8 wk after the implantation of four biomaterials [TTM, CONCELOC, Zimmer Biomet's Trabecular Metal (TANTALUM), and ATLANT] in a 5-mm diameter defect created in the left femur. A biomechanical evaluation of the femur was carried out by testing implant breakout force. The force was gradually increased until complete detachment of the implant from the bone occurred.
RESULTS The breakout force needed for implant detachment was significantly higher in the non-OVX group, compared with the OVX group for all implants (TANTALUM, 194.7 ± 6.1 N vs 181.3 ± 2.8 N; P = 0.005; CONCELOC, 190.8 ± 3.6 N vs 180.9 ± 6.6 N; P = 0.019; TTM, 186.3 ± 1.8 N vs 172.0 N ± 11.0 N; P = 0.043; and ATLANT, 104.9 ± 7.0 N vs 78.9 N ± 4.5 N; P = 0.001). In the OVX group, The breakout forces in TANTALUM, TTM, and CONCELOC did not differ significantly (P = 0.066). The breakout force for ATLANT in the OVX group was lower by a factor of 2.3 compared with TANTALUM and CONCELOC, and by 2.2 compared with TTM (P = 0.001). In the non-OVX group, the breakout force for ATLANT was significantly different from all other implants, with a reduction in fixation strength by a factor of 1.9 (P = 0.001).
CONCLUSION TANTALUM, TTM, and CONCELOC had equal bone-implant osseointegration in healthy and in osteoporotic bone. ATLANT had significantly decreased osseointegration (P = 0.001) in healthy and in osteoporotic bone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Histology is considered as a gold standard for analyzing bone architecture. However, histomorphometry is a destructive method and only offers the bone information of a limited location. Micro-computed tomography (μCT) is a non-destructive technology and provides a slice at any site. The aim of this study was to compare the correlation of the Bone-to-Implant Contact ratio (BIC) between 2D micro-CT (μCT) and histomorphometry and to investigate a method for assessing the osseointegration of the implant by 2D μCT. METHODS A total of 18 implants were divided into three groups (6 implants per group), and inserted into the rabbit tibia defects as follow: implant only (Implant group), implant with β-TCP/hydrogel (TCP group), implant with rhBMP-2 loaded β-TCP/hydrogel composite (BMP-2 group). After 4 weeks of implantation, the specimens were collected to take the micro-CT scan with an aluminum filter and performed H&E staining on the undecalcified sections. The 2D μCT slices were chosen at an angle of 0°, 45°, 90° and 135° with the representative histological section to measure BIC. And the correlations between BICs of 2D μCT and BICs of histology were evaluated. RESULTS In each group, BICs at the same sites measured by histomorphometry and corresponding 2D μCT presented the same trend and shown no significant difference between the two methods (P > 0.05). BICs of histological sections and BICs of corresponding 2D μCT slices presented a strong correlation in the implant group (γ = 0.74, P = 0.09), a moderate correlation in the TCP group (γ = 0.46, P = 0.35), a weak correlation in the BMP-2 group (γ = 0.30, P = 0.56). In the implant group, the relationship between BIC-Mean-μCTs and BICs-Histology has presented a significant linear correlation (γ = 0.84, P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Integrating bone information of several 2D μCT slices in different sites to measure BIC is a feasible method for assessing the implant osseointegration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone-to-implant contact ratio (BIC%) plays a critical role in secondary stability of osseointegrated dental implants. The aim of this study was to identify the correlation of 2D/3D micro-CT images with histology as a gold standard for evaluating BIC% and to investigate the influence of the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-poor plasma (PPP) on 3D BIC% following delayed implant placement with delayed loading (DIP+DL). METHODS Nine beagle dogs were recruited. Following bilateral extraction of mandibular 3rd premolar, 4th premolar, and 1st molar, 54 screw-type titanium implants were inserted and randomly divided into one control and two test groups based on a split-mouth design. The control group involved DIP+DL (n = 18) and both test groups included DIP+DL with local application of PRP (n = 18) and PPP (n = 18). A BIC analysis was performed utilizing 2D histomorphometry and 2D/3D micro-CT. Following identification of correlation between histology and 2D/3D micro-CT images, a 3D micro-CT assessment of the 3D BIC% at three follow-up time-points (1, 3, and 6 months) was carried out for observing the influence of PRP and PPP on BIC. RESULTS The 2D micro-CT BIC% values revealed a strong positive correlation with histology (r = 0.98, p < 0.001) and a moderate correlation existed with 3D micro-CT (r = 0. 67, p = 0.005). BIC levels at 1 month and combined influence of PPP and PRP irrespective of time-points revealed significantly higher 3D BIC% compared to the control. However, a reduction in 3D BIC% was observed at the 3rd and 6th month. No significant difference was observed between both PRP and PPP. CONCLUSIONS Both 2D and 3D micro-CT demonstrated a potential to be utilized as a complimentary method for assessing BIC compared to the histological gold standard. Overall, both PRP and PPP significantly facilitated bone healing and osseointegration with a higher 3D BIC at follow-up. However, their influence was reduced as the observation period was increased.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various studies have investigated the load-bearing capacity of patient-specific cranial implants. However, little attention has been given to the evaluation of the design of ceramic-titanium (CeTi) implants. METHODS A biomechanical evaluation of 3 patient-specific cranial implants was performed using finite element analysis. RESULTS The results of the analyses allowed the identification of the implant regions as well as the magnitudes of the maximum stresses on, and displacements along, these regions after traumatic impact. The analyses also showed that polyether ether ketone cranial implants offer inferior brain and neurocranial protection due to their high flexibility and local peak stresses at the bone-screw interface. In contrast, CeTi implants were able to evenly distribute the stresses along the interface and thus reduced the risk of neurocranial fracture. The scaffold structure at the border of these implants reduced stress shielding and enhanced bone ingrowth. Moreover, brain injuries were less likely to occur, as the CeTi implant exhibits limited deflection. CONCLUSIONS From the finite element analyses, CeTi cranial implants appear less likely to induce calvarial fractures with a better potential to protect the brain under impact loads.

Abstract
Quantitative ultrasound can be used to characterize the evolution of the bone-implant interface (BII), which is a complex system due to the implant surface roughness and to partial contact between bone and the implant. The determination of the constitutive law of the BII would be of interest in the context of implant acoustical modeling in order to take into account the imperfect characteristics of the BII. The aim of the present study is to propose an analytical effective model describing the interaction between an ultrasonic wave and a rough BII. To do so, a spring model was considered to determine the equivalent stiffness K of the BII. The stiffness contributions related (i) to the partial contact between the bone and the implant and (ii) to the presence of soft tissues at the BII during the process of osseointegration were assessed independently. K was found to be comprised between 1013 and 1017 N/m3 depending on the roughness and osseointegration of the BII. Analytical values of the reflection and transmission coefficients at the BII were derived from values of K. A good agreement with numerical results obtained through finite element simulation was obtained. This model may be used for future finite element bone-implant models to replace the BII conditions.

Abstract
A better understanding of bone nanostructure around the bone-implant interface is essential to improve longevity of clinical implants and decrease failure risks. This study investigates the spatio-temporal evolution of mineral crystal thickness and plate orientation in newly formed bone around the surface of a metallic implant. Standardized coin-shaped titanium implants designed with a bone chamber were inserted into rabbit tibiae for 7 and 13 weeks. Scanning measurements with micro-focused small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) were carried out on newly formed bone close to the implant and in control mature cortical bone. Mineral crystals were thinner close to the implant (1.8 ± 0.45 nm at 7 weeks and 2.4 ± 0.57 nm at 13 weeks) than in the control mature bone tissue (2.5 ± 0.21 nm at 7 weeks and 2.8 ± 0.35 nm at 13 weeks), with increasing thickness over healing time (+30 % in 6 weeks). These results are explained by younger bone close to the implant, which matures during osseointegration. Thinner mineral crystals parallel to the implant surface within the first 100 µm indicate that the implant affects the ultrastructure of neighbouring bone , potentially due to heterogeneous interfacial stresses, and suggest a longer maturation process of bone tissue and difficulty in binding to the metal. The bone growth kinetics within the bone chamber was derived from the spatio-temporal evolution of bone tissue's nanostructure, coupled with microtomographic imaging. The findings indicate that understanding mineral crystal thickness or plate orientation can improve our knowledge of osseointegration.

Abstract
Magnesium alloys are increasingly researched as temporary biodegradable metal implants in bone applications due to their mechanical properties which are more similar to bone than conventional implant metals and the fact that Magnesium occurs naturally within the body. However, the degradation processes in vivo and in particular the interaction of the bone with the degrading material need to be further investigated. In this study we are presenting the first quantitative comparison of the bone ultrastructure formed at the interface of biodegradable Mg-5Gd and Mg-10Gd implants and titanium and PEEK implants after 4, 8 and 12 weeks healing time using two-dimensional small angle X-ray scattering and X-ray diffraction. Differences in mineralization, orientation and thickness of the hydroxyapatite are assessed. We find statistically significant (p < 0.05) differences for the lattice spacing of the (310)-reflex of hydroxyapatite between titanium and Mg-xGd materials, as well as for the (310) crystal size between titanium and Mg-5Gd, indicating a possible deposition of Mg within the bone matrix. The (310) lattice spacing and crystallite size further differ significantly between implant degradation layer and surrounding bone (p < 0.001 for Mg-10Gd), suggesting apatite formation with significant amounts of Gd and Mg within the degradation layer. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Biodegradable Magnesium-based alloys are emerging as a viable alternative for temporary bone implant applications. However, in order to understand if the degradation of the implant material influences the bone ultrastructure, it is necessary to study the bone structure using high-resolution techniques. We have therefore employed 2D small angle X-ray scattering and X-ray diffraction to study the bone ultrastructure surrounding Magnesium-Gadolinium alloys as well as Titanium and PEEK alloys at three different healing times. This is the first time, that the bone ultrastructure around these materials is directly compared and that a statistical evaluation is performed. We found differences indicating a possible deposition of Mg within the bone matrix as well as a local deposition of Mg and/or Gd at the implant site. DATA AVAILABILITY STATEMENT: The raw/processed data required to reproduce these findings cannot be shared at this time as the data also forms part of an ongoing study.

Abstract
The evolution of the bone-implant interface reflects the implant osseointegration and bond strength, thereby determining the overall implant stability in the jawbone. Quantitative ultrasound represents a promising alternative technique to characterize the interfacial integrity, precisely due to the fact that those waves propagate essentially along the bone-implant interface, and are therefore influenced by its state. This study reports a numerical investigation of ultrasonic wave propagation for a commercial implant-jawbone system in which the thickness and mechanical properties of the interfacial layer (corresponding to the interphase) are systematically varied through the application of a rule of mixtures, in order to mimic the evolution from a dominantly soft tissue - like medium up to a fully healed bone. A simple figure of merit is devised in terms of an RMS-like (root mean square) factor based on the implant displacements, that evolves continuously and significantly with the bone "healing" process, thereby providing unequivocal information on the nature of the investigated bone-implant interface. The results show that the wave propagation pattern is primarily dictated by the impedance mismatch rather than by the interface thickness. This study validates the concept of quantitative ultrasonic testing as a sensitive alternative to the widespread resonant frequency analysis, thereby opening the way for future sensitivity analyses that will address more refined bone-implant interface pathologies such as those observed in the clinical realm.

Abstract
Purpose This study evaluated differences in bone healing and remodeling among 3 implants with different surfaces: sandblasting and large-grit acid etching (SLA; IS-III Active®), SLA with hydroxyapatite nanocoating (IS-III Bioactive®), and SLA stored in sodium chloride solution (SLActive®). Methods The mandibular second, third, and fourth premolars of 9 dogs were extracted. After 4 weeks, 9 dogs with edentulous alveolar ridges underwent surgical placement of 3 implants bilaterally and were allowed to heal for 2, 4, or 12 weeks. Histologic and histomorphometric analyses were performed on 54 stained slides based on the following parameters: vertical marginal bone loss at the buccal and lingual aspects of the implant (b-MBL and l-MBL, respectively), mineralized bone-to-implant contact (mBIC), osteoid-to-implant contact (OIC), total bone-to-implant contact (tBIC), mineralized bone area fraction occupied (mBAFO), osteoid area fraction occupied (OAFO), and total bone area fraction occupied (tBAFO) in the threads of the region of interest. Two-way analysis of variance (3 types of implant surface×3 healing time periods) and additional analyses for simple effects were performed. Results Statistically significant differences were observed across the implant surfaces for OIC, mBIC, tBIC, OAFO, and tBAFO. Statistically significant differences were observed over time for l-MBL, mBIC, tBIC, mBAFO, and tBAFO. In addition, an interaction effect between the implant surface and the healing time period was observed for mBIC, tBIC, and mBAFO. Conclusions Our results suggest that implant surface wettability facilitates bone healing dynamics, which could be attributed to the improvement of early osseointegration. In addition, osteoblasts might become more activated with the use of HA-coated surface implants than with hydrophobic surface implants in the remodeling phase.

Abstract
Complex physical and chemical interactions take place in the interface between the implant surface and bone. Various descriptions of the ultrastructural arrangement to various implant design features, ranging from solid and macroporous geometries to surface modifications on the micron-, submicron-, and nano- levels, have been put forward. Here, the current knowledge regarding structural organisation of the bone-implant interface is reviewed with a focus on solid devices, mainly metal (or alloy) intended for permanent anchorage in bone. Certain biomaterials that undergo surface and bulk degradation are also considered. The bone-implant interface is a heterogeneous zone consisting of mineralised, partially mineralised, and unmineralised areas. Within the meso-micro-nano-continuum, mineralised collagen fibrils form the structural basis of the bone-implant interface, in addition to accumulation of non-collagenous macromolecules such as osteopontin, bone sialoprotein, and osteocalcin. In the published literature, as many as eight distinct arrangements of the bone-implant interface ultrastructure have been described. The interpretation is influenced by the in vivo model and species-specific characteristics, healing time point(s), physico-chemical properties of the implant surface, implant geometry, sample preparation route(s) and associated artefacts, analytical technique(s) and their limitations, and non-compromised vs compromised local tissue conditions. The understanding of the ultrastructure of the interface under experimental conditions is rapidly evolving due to the introduction of novel techniques for sample preparation and analysis. Nevertheless, the current understanding of the interface zone in humans in relation to clinical implant performance is still hampered by the shortcomings of clinical methods for resolving the finer details of the bone-implant interface. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Being a hierarchical material by design, the overall strength of bone is governed by composition and structure. Understanding the structure of the bone-implant interface is essential in the development of novel bone repair materials and strategies, and their long-term success. Here, the current knowledge regarding the eventual structural organisation of the bone-implant interface is reviewed, with a focus on solid devices intended for permanent anchorage in bone, and certain biomaterials that undergo surface and bulk degradation. The bone-implant interface is a heterogeneous zone consisting of mineralised, partially mineralised, and unmineralised areas. Within the meso-micro-nano-continuum, mineralised collagen fibrils form the structural basis of the bone-implant interface, in addition to accumulation of non-collagenous macromolecules such as osteopontin, bone sialoprotein, and osteocalcin.

Abstract
Background: Methotrexate (MTX) is an immunosuppressive drug, widely used in inflammatory disturbances including rheumatoid arthritis. However, there is no consensus regarding the effect of MTX on implant osseointegration. Objective: The purpose of this experimental study was to investigate the effect of low dose MTX on Bone-Implant Contact (BIC) of dogs. Methods: Six mandibular premolar teeth (bilateral) of 8 mature dogs were extracted. After 3 months of healing, 6 implants (bone level, resorbable blast media surface) were inserted into the mandible of each dog (3 in each side). Dogs were randomly divided into a study group (receiving 2.5 mg/week MTX orally, 3 times per week for 4 weeks) and a control group each containing 4 dogs. In the 1st week, postoperative BIC was evaluated in 4 dogs, two from each group. In the 4th week, reverse torque and BIC were evaluated in the remaining 4 dogs. Data were analyzed with two-way ANOVA test for 95% confidence interval. Results: The reverse torque test of the 4th week, showed a satisfying osseointegration. Histopathologic evaluation revealed that the BIC was significantly higher in the control group in comparison to the MTX group in the 1st and 4th week. In addition, the BIC of both groups were significantly increased in the 4th week in comparison to the 1st week in both groups. Conclusion: MTX has the potential to interfere with osseointegration process.

Abstract
Purpose Bone-to-implant contact (BIC) is difficult to measure on micro-computed tomography (CT) because of artifacts that hinder accurate differentiation of the bone and implant. This study presents an advanced algorithm for measuring BIC in micro-CT acquisitions using a spiral scanning technique, with improved differentiation of bone and implant materials. Methods Five sandblasted, large-grit, acid-etched implants were used. Three implants were subjected to surface analysis, and 2 were inserted into a New Zealand white rabbit, with each tibia receiving 1 implant. The rabbit was sacrificed after 28 days. The en bloc specimens were subjected to spiral (SkyScan 1275, Bruker) and round (SkyScan 1172, SkyScan 1275) micro-CT scanning to evaluate differences in the images resulting from the different scanning techniques. The partial volume effect (PVE) was optimized as much as possible. BIC was measured with both round and spiral scanning on the SkyScan 1275, and the results were compared. Results Compared with the round micro-CT scanning, the spiral scanning showed much clearer images. In addition, the PVE was optimized, which allowed accurate BIC measurements to be made. Round scanning on the SkyScan 1275 resulted in higher BIC measurements than spiral scanning on the same machine; however, the higher measurements on round scanning were confirmed to be false, and were found to be the result of artifacts in the void, rather than bone. Conclusions The results of this study indicate that spiral scanning can reduce metal artifacts, thereby allowing clear differentiation of bone and implant. Moreover, the PVE, which is a factor that inevitably hinders accurate BIC measurements, was optimized through an advanced algorithm.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the labral height and pullout resistance after the repair of Bankart lesions in the glenohumeral joint of swine models, using double-loaded anchors with two suture configurations: simple and Mason-Allen. Methods Ten swine shoulders were used, in which Bankart lesions were created. For each specimen, the lesion was sutured randomly with Mason-Allen sutures or simple sutures. The labral height was measured before the lesion was created and after the labral repair. The specimens were submitted to a tensile test for biomechanical evaluation. Results In specimens submitted to simple suture (n = 5), the mean labral height observed before the lesion was 3.86 mm, and after suturing, 3.33 mm. In specimens submitted to Mason-Allen suture (n = 5), it was observed that the mean labral height before the lesion was 3.92 mm, and after suturing, 3.48 mm. When comparing the labral height after simple suture and Mason-Allen suture, no significant difference was observed. The pullout force at the end of the tensile test on specimens with single suture was 130 N, and in specimens with Mason-Allen suture, 128.6 N. No statistically significant differences were observed between the shoulders treated with single suture and Mason-Allen suture; p = 0.885. Conclusions Repair of Bankart lesions with Mason-Allen suture provides increased labrum height; however, it does not increase the pullout strength.

Abstract
Transcutaneous osseointegrated prostheses provide stable connections to the skeleton while eliminating skin lesions experienced with socket prosthetics. Additive manufacturing can create custom textured implants capable of interfacing with amputees' residual bones. Our objective was to compare osseointegration of textured surface implants made by electron beam melting (EBM), an additive manufacturing process, to machine threaded implants. Whole body vibration was investigated to accelerate osseointegration. Two cohorts of Sprague-Dawley rats received bilateral, titanium implants (EBM vs. threaded) in their tibiae. One cohort comprising five groups vibrated at 45 Hz: 0.0 (control), 0.15, 0.3, 0.6 or 1.2 g was followed for six weeks. Osseointegration was evaluated through torsional testing and bone volume fraction (BV/TV). A second cohort, divided into two groups (control and 0.6 g), was followed for 24 days and evaluated for resonant frequency, bone-implant contact (BIC) and fluorochrome labeling. The EBM textured implants exhibited significantly improved mechanical stability independent of vibration, highlighting the benefits of using EBM to produce custom textured surfaces. Bone formation on and around the EBM textured implants increased compared to machined implants, as seen by BIC and fluorescence. No difference in torque, BIC or fluorescence among vibration levels was detected. BV/TV significantly increased at 0.6 g compared to control for both implant types.

Abstract
Mechanism underlying the diabetes-induced poor osteointegration of implants remains elusive, making it a challenge to develop corresponding solutions. Here, we studied the role of angiogenesis in the diabetes-induced poor bone repair at the bone-implant interface (BII) and the related mechanisms. In vivo, titanium screws were implanted in the femurs of mice, and, in vitro, vascular endothelial cell (VEC) was cultured on titanium surface. Results showed that, compared with normal milieu (NM), diabetic milieu (DM) led to angiogenesis inhibition around implants which resulted in reduced osteoprogenitors and poor bone formation on BII in vivo. In vitro, DM caused significant increase of NADPH oxidases (NOX), dysfunction of mitochondria and overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in VEC on titanium surface, inducing obvious cell dysfunction. Both Mito-TEMPO (Mito, a mitochondria-targeted ROS antagonist) and apocynin (APO, a NOX inhibitor) effectively attenuated the oxidative stress and dysfunction of VEC, with the beneficial effects of APO significantly better than those of Mito. Further study showed that the diabetes-induced metabolic disturbance of VEC was significantly related to the increase of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) at the BII. Our results suggested that the AGEs-related and NOX-triggered cellular oxidative stress leads to VEC dysfunction and angiogenesis impairment at the BII, which plays a critical role in the compromised implant osteointegration under diabetic conditions. These demonstrated new insights into the BII in pathological states and also provided NOX and AGEs as promising therapeutic targets for developing novel implant materials to accelerate the angiogenesis and osteointegration of implants in diabetic patients with hyperglycemia. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The high failure rate of bone implants in diabetic patients causes patients terrible pain and limits the clinical application of implant materials. The mechanism underlying this phenomenon needs elucidation so that it would be possible to develop corresponding solutions. Our study demonstrated that the AGEs-related and NOX-triggered oxidative stress of VEC leads to angiogenesis impairment at the bone-implant interface (BII) in diabetes. These are critical mechanisms underlying the compromised implant osteointegration in diabetic hyperglycemia. These provide new insights into the BII in diseased states and also suggest NOX and AGEs as crucial therapeutic targets for developing novel implant materials which could modulate the oxidative stress on BII to get improved osteointegration and reduced implant failure, especially in diabetic patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the clinical effect of ceramic on ceramic total hip arthroplasty(THA)in Crowe IV developmental dysplasia of the hip(DDH). METHODS From April 2008 to December 2015, 137 hips of 111 Crowe IV DDH patients received THA using Forte or Delta ceramic on ceramic by one senior surgeon, which consists of 85 unilateral hips and 26 bilateral hips. The average age of the patients was(38.88±10.83) years old ranging from 18 to 68 years old. The mean follow-up was(41.16±21.50) months ranging from 12 to 96 months. All the patients were evaluated by Harris Hip Score. Radiographic evaluations were made preoperatively and during follow-up. Harris scores, the incidence of complications such as ceramic fracture, squeaking, dislocation were observed. RESULTS The mean preoperative Harris score was 56.54±15.67, the mean postoperative Harris score was 88.30±6.86(P=0.017). Periprosthetic osteolysis was not deteced around any cup. No ceramic fracture occurred. There were 3 cases of revision surgery due to infection, losening of the stem and limb length discrepancy, respectively; 3 cases of dislocation occurred. Seventy-seven patients were recorded the gait and the hip mobility, the hip flexion of 69 patients were above 120 degrees. CONCLUSIONS Ceramic on ceramic bearing showed an encouraging result in Crowe IV DDH total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
This numerical vibration finite element (FE) study introduces resonance three-dimensional planning (RP3D) to assess preoperatively the primary stability of a cementless stem for total hip arthroplasty. Based on a patient's CT-scan and a numerical model of a stem, RP3D aims at providing mechanical criteria indicative of the achievable primary stability. We investigate variations of the modal response of the stem to changes of area and apparent stiffness of the bone-implant interface. The model is computationally cheap as it does not include a mesh of the bone. The apparent stiffness of the bone is modeled by springs attached to the nodes of the stem's mesh. We investigate an extended range of stiffness values while, in future works, patient's specific Hounsfield values could be used to define stiffness. We report modal frequencies, shapes, and a ratio of elastic potential energies (rEPE) that quantifies the proximal motion that should be minimum for a stable stem. The modal response exhibits a clear transition between loose and tight contact as area and stiffness of the interface increase. rEPE thresholds that could potentially discriminate preoperatively between stable and unstable stems are given for a Symbios SPS® size C stem.

Abstract
Purpose To retrospectively evaluate the relationship between the vertical position of the implant-abutment interface and marginal bone loss over 3 years using radiological analysis. Methods In total, 286 implant surfaces of 143 implants from 61 patients were analyzed. Panoramic radiographic images were taken immediately after implant installation and at 6, 12, and 36 months after loading. The implants were classified into 3 groups based on the vertical position of the implant-abutment interface: group A (above bone level), group B (at bone level), and group C (below bone level). The radiographs were analyzed by a single examiner. Results Changes in marginal bone levels of 0.99±1.45, 1.13±0.91, and 1.76±0.78 mm were observed at 36 months after loading in groups A, B, and C, respectively, and bone loss was significantly greater in group C than in groups A and B. Conclusions The vertical position of the implant-abutment interface may affect marginal bone level change. Marginal bone loss was significantly greater in cases where the implant-abutment interface was positioned below the marginal bone. Further long-term study is required to validate our results.

Abstract
Purpose Contact and distance osteogenesis occur around all endosseous dental implants. However, the mechanisms underlying these processes have not been fully elucidated. We hypothesized that these processes occur independently of each other. To test this, we used titanium (Ti) tubes to physically separate contact and distance osteogenesis, thus allowing contact osteogenesis to be measured in the absence of possible triggers from distance osteogenesis. Methods Sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA) and modified SLA (modSLA) implants were used. Both types had been sandblasted with large grit and then etched with acid. The modSLA implants then underwent additional treatment to increase hydrophilicity. The implants were implanted into rabbit tibiae, and half were implanted within Ti tubes. The bone-to-implant contact (BIC) ratio was calculated for each implant. Immunohistochemical analyses of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 expression and new bone formation (Masson trichrome stain) were performed. Results The implants outside of Ti tubes were associated with good bone formation along the implant surface. Implantation within a Ti tube significantly reduced the BIC ratio (P<0.001). Compared with the modSLA implants, the SLA implants were associated with significantly higher BIC ratios, regardless of the presence or absence of Ti tubes (P=0.043). In the absence of Ti tubes, the bone adjacent to the implant had areas of new bone formation that expressed BMP-2 at high levels. Conclusions This study disproved the null hypothesis and suggested that contact osteogenesis is initiated by signals from the old bone that undergoes distance osteogenesis after drilling. This signal may be BMP-2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Implant loosening may occur after dental implant placement as a result of the mechanical conditions created around the implant. In this research, the effect of bone drilling conditions on the magnitude of stress created in newly-formed bone around the implant, after placement, was investigated using FEA analysis. METHOD The simulations performed in this study were based on the three-dimensional (3D) shape of the created cavities, extracted from the drilled cortical bone of the jaws. With this aim, a dental implant model was placed in the jaw and a shell of the 3D bone cavity remained as a newly-formed cortical bone after implant placement. Then, a load was exerted on the implant model and the value of stress created on the newly-formed bone was obtained. Overall, eight combined models were used in all the eight drilling and loading simulations. The examined variables were rotational speed of drill bit, its feed rate and head angle. Also, an animal test was performed to investigate the accuracy of the simulation results. RESULTS The results of this study showed that the amount of principal stress was the least (16.7MPa) for a newly-formed cortical bone whose cavity was created under drilling condition at the same head angle and feed rate of the drill bit with a rotational speed of 400rpm. The same results were obtained for the head angle and feed rate of a drill bit of 70° and 1.5mm/s, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Drilling conditions have effect on the stress created in a newly-formed cortical bone after dental implant loading.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. PURPOSE To compare intraoperative endplate injury cases and no injury cases in consecutive series and to identify predisposing factors for intraoperative endplate injury. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Unintended endplate violation and subsequent cage subsidence is an intraoperative complication of extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF). It is still unknown whether it is derived from inexperienced surgical technique or patients' inherent problems. METHODS Consecutive patients (n=102; mean age, 69.0±0.8 years) underwent XLIF at 201 levels at a single institute. Preoperative and immediately postoperative radiographs were compared and cases with intraoperative endplate injury were identified. Various parameters were reviewed in each patient and compared between the injury and no injury groups. RESULTS Twenty one levels (10.4%) had signs of intraoperative endplate injury. The injury group had a significantly higher rate of females (p=0.002), lower bone mineral density (BMD) (p=0.02), higher rate of polyetheretherketone as cage material (p=0.04), and taller cage height (p=0.03) compared with the no injury group. Multivariate analysis indicated that a T-score of BMD as a negative (odds ratio, 0.52; 95% confidence interval, 0.27-0.93; p=0.03) and cage height as a positive (odds ratio, 1.84; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-3.17; p=0.03) were predisposing factors for intraoperative endplate injury. CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative endplate injury is correlated significantly with reduced BMD and taller cage height. Precise evaluation of bone quality and treatment for osteoporosis might be important and care should be taken not to choose excessively taller cage.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was accomplished to assess the biomechanical state of different retaining methods of bar implant-overdenture. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two 3D finite element models were designed. The first model included implant overdenture retained by Hader-clip attachment, while the second model included two extracoronal resilient attachment (ERA) studs added distally to Hader splint bar. A non-linear frictional contact type was assumed between overdentures and mucosa to represent sliding and rotational movements among different attachment components. A 200 N was applied at the molar region unilaterally and perpendicular to the occlusal plane. Additionally, the mandible was restrained at their ramus ends. The maximum equivalent stress and strain (von Mises) were recorded and analyzed at the bone-implant interface level. RESULTS The values of von Mises stress and strain of the first model at bone-implant interface were higher than their counterparts of the second model. Stress concentration and high value of strain were recognized surrounding implant of the unloaded side in both models. CONCLUSION There were different patterns of stress-strain distribution at bone-implant interface between the studied attachment designs. Hader bar-clip attachment showed better biomechanical behavior than adding ERA studs distal to hader bar.

Abstract
PURPOSE Finite element study on the effect of abutment length and material on implant bone interface against dynamic loading. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two dimensional finite element models of cylinderical implant, abutments and bone made by titanium or polyoxymethylene were simulated with the aid of Marc/Mentat software. Each model represented bone, implant and titanium or polyoxymethylene abutment. Model 1: Implant with 3 mm titanium abutment, Model 2: Implant with 2 mm polyoxymethylene resilient material abutment, Model 3: Implant with 3 mm polyoxymethylene resilient material abutment and Model 4: Implant with 4 mm polyoxymethylene resilient material abutment. A vertical load of 11 N was applied with a frequency of 2 cycles/sec. The stress distribution pattern and displacement at the junction of cortical bone and implant was recorded. RESULTS When Model 2, 3 and 4 are compared with Model 1, they showed narrowing of stress distribution pattern in the cortical bone as the height of the polyoxymethylene resilient material abutment increases. Model 2, 3 and 4 showed slightly less but similar displacement when compared to Model 1. CONCLUSION Within the limitation of this study, we conclude that introduction of different height resilient material abutment with different heights i.e. 2 mm, 3 mm and 4 mm polyoxymethylene, does not bring about significant change in stress distribution pattern and displacement as compared to 3 mm Ti abutment. Clinically, with the application of resilient material abutment there is no significant change in stress distribution around implant-bone interface.
